Chapter 485 You Can’t Work With Arthur

"Isn't this condition attractive enough?"

Indeed, that one condition was enough for Haris to risk his life.

Jasmine was the McGrath Family's only heir. If anything happened to her, their bloodline would end here.

Besides, Jasmine and Haris had a close relationship as she grew up under his care.

He had to get her out safely, by hook or by crook.

"Great. I'll release her mom, and you'll let Jas go."

This was the best move for now, as he could no longer execute his original plan.

Elspeth was ready to agree since this was an equal exchange for her.

However, Callum placed a hand on her arm and motioned for her not to agree so quickly. "No. What we want isn't that simple."

Haris thought that they could come to an agreement with reason and didn't expect Callum to suddenly change his mind. "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing. It's just that after some thought, it seems that you'll benefit more from this than we would, and that's not quite fair now, isn't it?"

Now that Haris knew where Jasmine was. He wasn't as worked up as he started bargaining calmly.

"And what is this benefit?"

"Jasmine is your granddaughter. You have a close relationship with her. So, you'll gain more after this exchange."

Elspeth suppressed her laughter as she listened to Callum, as he made it seem like that was the case.

Even though what he said made sense, something still felt off.

It felt like he was haggling in a wet market.
